Airgas to debut new products at FABTECH 2017

Airgas, an Air Liquide company, has announced plans to exhibit at FABTECH 2017 in November where it will debut new products at booth #B27013.

Held in Chicago from 6th to 9th November, the booth will showcase new products such as the multi-functional Machitech Automation pipe profiling system, which uses Hypertherm plasma platform to cut everything from pipe and beams to flat plates. A Miller Weld Automation robotic welding system, vending solutions and the Radnor® line of products will be on display, plus an OTC robotic system on a 30-foot slider – which can robotically weld multiple projects at the same time – will be welding unique giveaways throughout the conference.

Red-D-Arc Welderentals, an Airgas company, will debut the Port-A-Weld System (PWS), a portable welding package that allows operators to quickly and accurately position the welding arc and speed up the welding process.

A new orbital welding rental solution will be debuted for fusion welding, tube-to-tube welding, as well as tube cutting and beveling. Red-D-Arc Welderentals experts will showcase an orbital saw, facer and a welding system in the booth this year. The new orbital options can be used for a wide range of applications, from food and beverage and pharmaceutical uses, to aerospace, semi-conductor, and shipyard production.

Airgas experts in welding, safety, eBusiness and automation services will be available to discuss everything from retrofitting and periodic maintenance schedules for CNC cutting machines, to gas efficiency and online capabilities.

Airgas’s Director of Advanced Fabrication, Rob Tessier, said the company would be bringing back their popular ‘Unlocking the Hidden Cost of Welding’ seminar to FABTECH to “share new ways our customers can improve productivity, reach their bottom-line goals and increase profits”.
